Coffee Break , Time 4 A Cache. (Auckland) Manly, North Island, New Zealand
By G-2 on 26-Sep-11. Waypoint GC34XN9

back to work -;)

Need to check

Looked for a while but felt like a weirdo being so close to traffic, people staring. Gave up for the time being.

No luck today

Had coffee nearby then a quick look here before leaving. Muggle hanging around nearby made a good search difficult so will call a dnf this time.

Couldn't find it anywhere!!

Easy to find.

Easy

great find, took me longer that it should of.

Nearby and decided to see if I could find, luckily only a short search, beautiful hot day!

I noticed this one yesterday when having an icecream at the macdonalds. So when arriving at the traffic lights from a different angle, noticed the great parking area. I made a short run to GZ and after first looking in the wrong spot find the clever hide

Awesome little cache, quick easy find TFTC

So well hidden going all natural definitely a favourite

Terrific cache thanks Glyn ! A great camo as usual , but not toooo hard this time thank goodness as it's getting dark ! On our way home after catching up with family camping out at Shakespears ....

Dealing with the road was the biggest problem.
Great spot. Tftc.

Quick find on a walk up to the shops months ago !!! Just realised that we hadn't logged it properly tftc

I'm out today with Vistra today around Whangaparoa.. We aim to get around 50 caches today. Please excuse the generic log.

Find #1014. Thank you very much for the cache. 28/09/2014 13:28

I'm out today with Cretti caching around the Whangaparoa Peninsula.

Soon spotted the likely hide here, nice hide. Thanks.

Find #6437. Thank you very much for the cache. 28/09/2014 13:28

We camped for a couple of nights on the Whangaporara Peninsular, while we were there we saw killer whales come right into the harbour. A truely memorable moment.
All the caches we did were in amazing locations with fantastic views of the coastline & some withe viewscross to the Auckland skyline. All are worth a favourote point, I have only selected a few but if your cache does not receive one its not that its not as good as the rest.
A nice quick cache, worth a favourite point
Thanks for placing this cache glyn(the only one)

Good cach there!! Took it while I was waiting for the bus, nice and easy. TFTC! Cheers from Sweden!

TillyGeorge13 great cache well done!

While waiting for the bus today at the plaza I checked to see if any caches were around - this was directly across the road, clever little hide Didn't have pen to log it on the small peice of paper. cache is in good order. TFTC

Stealth is required as there is often muggles hanging around. Miss 8 found the cache without to much trouble.

That was an easy one! Tftc

Forgot a pen as I found this cache on the way home from a party.

Great hide and a excellent camo tftc

Not the best of days for caching, the minute we walked out the door it started to pour down with rain. The GPS seemed to be all over the place also, so our search area was wide. Had a good look around but beaten on this occasion.

Good one TFTC

Bernica found it with help from a first timer. Big ups to Mrs IanRob5!

Well done Michelle a good first time find. Very tricky little hide. Hope someone doesn't pick it up and start playing fetch with their dog

Great to log another find on a day full of DNFs. Thanks for the cache.

Found with Emeralde. Clever little catch! Log book is full though so couldn't sign. TFTC

Really cool hiding spot! Log book is full though. TFTC

Lovely little park, quickly spotted and logged with Granville86a, TFTC!~

Found with Chosen1978 on Mega Trip. Thanks for great hide

New Zealand 2103 trip for the Auckland Mega at Albany. Day 15, In Auckland Region, Northshore and Shakesphere Park. After a great weather day so far the rain started here and I was almost blown over the road to it. Quite a neat hide but not too hard to spot when you are looking for it. I wonder if a muggle would even register something. Thanks.

Over in NZ for a family furneral next Tuesday, had to get out of the house, and this one had been on my radar for a couple of years. Every time in the past I'd tried, it rained on me. The sun was shining today, for how long????? Pam said go for it.

After finding some caches in and around Shakespears Park, it was off to find some more on the Whangaparaoa Peninsula that had eluded me on past visits.

This one is the epic story, for the 3rd attempt .
The past attempts, were rained out, muggled out or timed out.

All good with the cache.
TFTC glyn

Very impressed thanks!!!!

On my way home from a job locally, and parked in the plaza to scout out some caches. This one had me a bit worried at first, because it looked like that the local council had been doing a bit of tiding up, tree branches trimmed etc. I needn't have worried, it was still there alright cleverly hidden. Once the muggles had left on the bus, the rest was easy.

Very cool & clever! Log book is full though!

Found this one with my mate, wouldnt of found it without him. pretty tricky cache bur found it really cool. TFTC!!

A nice bench overlooking the peninsula between two trees offered the perfect place for a wodnerful cache. TFTC

A really lovely little park with great views alongside a busy road. it took a bit of a search to find this cleverly hidden cache.

A few sticks in my eyes at first but then algood! TFTC

Still early in the morning and after a long drive up here a Coffee was just what was required, took a moment to locate the right break but got there

TFTC

Quick stop and grab. Took a couple of goes to locate the right spot but got there on the end

Definitely there. Great spot

Searched for at least 10 minutes to no avail. Put us down for a DNF on this one.

TFTC

Having spent a weekend burning up fuel on the roads the sign off puzzles, which have ended up being a frustrating and futile exercise. We looked for the next closest today and it was this one. Approached GZ with trepidation, as our skills seem to be lacking these last few days in finding caches and particularly the "master of camo" type ones. However after a bit of fossicking around we were pleasantly surprised to have located this one. A bit wet but the waterproof log surviving good. Enjoyed the view. And have a smile back on our dials. SL. TFTC.

After a fantastic drive coming from Auckland visiting Shakespeare Park and Kotanui Island we found this cache really quickly on our ride home. A nice place but a bit prominent, too. Thanks for the joy.

Nice find thanks busy and windy, log full
And yes we had been out with the Kiwiz@gz today and thought while here we should have a coffee however time was running out due to a birthday party in west Auckland to attend!

It was rather wet under foot traffic going by and yes retrieval of the cache was easy to get due to being hidden from others
Was glad though the rain was holding off today but the wind certainly wasn't

Yep another awsome hide.. now its time for a coffee break
TFTC

Excellent cache...waited a while for some muggles to leave but then soon had cache in hand!!TFTC

Had to get a battery at the shops with Mum today, so a nice jaunt across the road to the park to find this one. Very nice hide, but the next person can thank me for removing the huge slug from the cache. Mum created a diversion chatting to a friend who got off the bus......had to wait for teenage muggles to move on. TFTC.

8/7/12 nice camo tftc

A nice quick find - what a wonderful attachment!

#553, GPS had me searching wrong place, but son found the tree anyway. TFTC

Nice quick find, no passing muggles so in and out quickly. TFTC.

very nice nano, tftc

Nice bit of camo in an interesting little park. Thanks for this one.

A nice simple cache. Cheers

A quick search after getting off the bus a stones throw away.
Had to look casual when searching due to a few people nearby.

Quick and easy find, TFTC

Fairly easy find. A nice grassy area to visit after having some lunch at the shopping plaza. TFTC.

Though I might grab this one before catching the bus. Tricky find and actually overlooked it once, other than that TFTC.

On our first pass there were some emo kids hanging around, so we didn't stop, but a short while later we were going past again and the area was empty so a sneaky short stop in the bus stop and we had the cache found, signed and rehidden. It was wet inside - although not a problem for the logsheet itself, names are fading off it, and I had to dry it a bit to write on it. Great camo, as usual. TFTC!!!

Out for an afternoon geocaching with FMZ.....A quick stop in the bus stop after the kids had moved on before any bus came along ...TFTC

Great views today at GZ, the water was glistening in the sunshine. Great hide but didnt take long to find TFTC.

Sneaky one this is! TFTC!

Last for the night, found around 9.20pm. Walked up to the GZ, thought that looked like a good spot, hand out and cache in hand. Neat! Took longer to roll the log back up small enough to get it back in the cache than in finding it. TFTC

Ingenious cache, TFTC.

No cafes were open when I was here this morning. The cache was out in the open so hid it a tad better.

Cheers for the cache.

Creepy elderly lady was staring me down while I attemped to locate this cache. Be careful of people waiting for the bus; they watch your every move.

Had to wait a while before the area was clear enough from muggles to retrieve.

Not good weather for geocaching today with heavy rain and strong winds but on holdiay so have to get some caches found. Soon located the cache. SL TFTC

out hunting after a winter break from geocaching .... great cammo

Easy find.
Nice camo.
TFTC

Found while in the area.

Last find of the day, an easy find when you know the camo.

Manged a nearby park as the traffic was pretty light and made a grab for the cache. Nice to see some familiar camo so it made for an easy drive-by (sort of). Thanks.

7756 Cache Found… Time for a late lunch break, TFTC.

Have been saving this cache to fill the gap in the calendar. A place we visit many times so nice to have a cache so close to home. Thanks

Could have done with a Coffee Break, but not enough Time. But we did have Time 4 A Cache. Nice hide, thanks.

#3729

We thought it was time for a Coffee Break , Time 4 A Cache.

TFTC

High muggle zone for us with school lunch break time - found easily and concealed without difficulty - TFTC

Takes longer to get through the lights here than it does to find the cache!

TFTC

I am not much of a ftf fiend but this one had been left all morning. In the end I was passing by but beaten to the punch by half an hour. TFTC

As i had the day off today, what better way than to spend the morning on a FTF hunt. Arrived at GZ with alot of people around catching buses, relaxing on the seats and taking in the view. Managed to locate and retrieve the cache with out to much trouble. FTF for me number ??? really should add them up! TFTC glyn great hide
